Topic: Canon VIXIA HF r800 (Read 1637 times)

In the market for a new camera. I like what I've heard about this cam so far. I've used my old Canon HV20 (well, two of them) since 2009. I absolutely love that old thing, but I just think it's time for an upgrade. I'm looking for something on the small side, as I typically , and the old HV20 is on the large side. Also, the r800 has an external mic output, which I need. Film almost exclusively metal shows in low to mid lighting. This is also in my price range, as I simply can't justify spending a ton of $ on a hobby.

So essentially I'm asking if anyone has any experience, good or bad, with this rig. Also, I don't know a ton about SD cards, as I have always preferred miniDV. What class.type would be optimal in this case? Any and all help is appreciated!
